Trying apples for the first time is exciting. And I found just the right kind too!

Perfecting breakfast
I have become a real expert in eating with a spoon and my technique is almost impeccable. When the food is sticky – I blow bubbles. When the food is cold – I push it out with my tongue. When the food is colorful – I get as much of it on my fingers as I can and paint everything in sight. When I am full I store some in my cheeks and when the time is right I make a raspberry sound and irrigate the surroundings. When I really want to make an impression, I wait till the spoon is right by my lips and I sneeze and sneeze.
Rory 0.7
Yesterday I turned seven months. As a reward, I thought I’d give myself a day off from my job as a blog writer and photo editor. And to be honest, there was so much excitement in the air that I doubt I would be able to concentrate on writing. Turning seven months was lots of fun. First I had a little party with my friends Zebra and Sophie the Giraffe where we sat in a circle and sang songs, played clapping games and counting rhymes. Then my real live friend David came for a play date. I haven’t interacted with David before, so I didn’t know if we would have anything in common. But he was very nice and we had a really good time. We told each other stories, held hands, and even played footsie. He brought me the softest little sheep named Dasha. I also got presents from my friend Rachel, who I hope to see soon so that I can say “Thank you!” for all the wonderful books and clothes she got me.
Official Documents
Today I got my first official US government correspondence in the mail. My passport has arrived! It has my picture and plenty of visa pages. All I have to do is pack my bags and I’m ready for my first adventure :) Although I should probably update my picture soon as my second milk tooth has arrived.
Happy Birthday Grandma!
Happy birthday dear grandma Roza!!! I wish you happiness and health!
I thought long and hard of what to give you for your birthday. Flowers – are expected, chocolates and cake – we cannot share yet, perfume – you can just walk around with me as I smell good all the time. So I decided what can be better than a birthday card designed, painted, and signed by me!? I took out my watercolors and made you a card. It was a lot of hard work, and after I was finished painting, I sat down to have a drink to your health :)
Master chef
The weather was terrible today in the morning and even when the rain stopped it was really windy. I decided not to go outside, and instead, to make the time pass by quicker, I asked to help make mini apple pancakes. Of course I had to get properly prepared for the chore: I put on my little apron, tied my hair with a bow, got my spatula and my measuring cups. The hardest part was to decide which cup to use, so I tried them all. I inspected all the ingredients and we were done in no time.
Monkey see, monkey do
Thank you everyone for all the good wishes. I’m feeling much better now :)
Year of the Dragon
Yesterday night a green fire-breathing dragon visited me to wish me a Happy Chinese New Year! We danced and laughed and had a grand time, and my cold almost went away.
Bite this
It’s no fun being sick! I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, and even playing brings me little joy. The only thing I can do is to chew on my toys, since I have my very first budding of a tooth on the bottom right side. Although you cannot see it yet, if you give me something small, I’ll leave an impression :)
Sniffles go away!
Sniffles, sniffles go away! Little Rory wants to play. I could have been outside today, making my first snowman. Alas, I’m still home with a cold. Its a good thing I have many toys to keep me entertained.
